On 19 March 2018, one of the most acclaimed tenors of our time, Ramón Vargas performs his first song recital at the Erkel Theatre.
Ramón Vargas is one of those rare tenors who places great importance on that most intimate and lyrical of musical genres: the art song. Although he gives concerts from time to time, he is yet to perform a song recital at the Erkel Theatre, even though the venue's spirit – going back as far as Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, in spite of the vast space – aids the muse of poetry. In March, Vargas will join the likes of Andrea Rost, Gyula Orendt, Edita Gruberová and Renée Fleming on the list of artists to give a song recitals at the theatre in the “modern-era”, featuring the music of star piano accompanist Charles Spencer, just as Fleming's concert included that of Hartmut Höll.
